Can you tell me how to solve this is layman terms because I want to learn how to do it myself. Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! You would apply the "order of operations"
A memory device is:
PEMDAS(please excuse my dear aunt sally)
.
P: parentheses first
E: exponents next
MD: multiplication/division from left to right
AS: addition/subtraction from left to right
.
3[8+(4+2)]
3[8+6]
3[14]
42
